Donald Trump‘s beloved home at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida has been raided by the FBI.
The law enforcement outfit did not initially disclose the reason for the raid. Reports have since come out that it has to do with Trump’s handling of classified documents and sensitive material during his time as President. Regardless, the former Prez and his team have been left shocked after law enforcement officials stormed the property.

The raid took place on Monday when a group of agents executed a search warrant at the resort in Palm Beach, Florida. Early on Tuesday morning, NBC News and other outlets confirmed the raid was related to searching for “classified material that belongs to the National Archives.” Once inside, FBI officials reportedly searched the entire property for what they were seeking. They even broke into Trump’s safe to do it!! Gotta do what you gotta do…
According to CNN, Trump was not present in Florida at the time of the raid. Still, it really got to him. In a crazy, meandering statement sent out later on Monday, the Celebrity Apprentice alum wrote in part:
The “prosecutorial misconduct” remark is an interesting one, considering Trump himself is the one who appointed current FBI Director Chris Wray to his position back in 2017. Sad trombone!
The Donald went on to take a shot at Hillary Clinton‘s handling of emails prior to their 2016 election battle. (It’s been six years since the election, dude. Let go of Hillary already!) He also dropped another “s**t hole countries” type remark, while sharing the detail about the safe:
Wow.
According to People, who spoke to an insider present at the raid, “the mood was pure shock.” Well, yeah!

This week, former U.S. senator and “SNL” vet Al Franken is guest-hosting “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” and since his whole thing is the intersection of comedy and politics, you can guess his monologue on Tuesday’s show was mainly about politics.In particular, he had some pretty good zings about the investigation of Donald Trump concerning the disgraced former president’s potential violations of federal laws concerning top secret information. Even if one of the jokes referred to something that feels so relatively long ago it didn’t quite land with the “Jimmy Kimmel Live” audience until he reminded them.Franken also talked about how much he dislikes Texas Senator Ted Cruz, the extent to which Trump lost the 2020 election badly, and more.
